200 words about traveling the world

I got a task by one of my best friends, Paul, to write an essay about traveling the world, in 200 words. A piece of cake! I bet I can make it more than 200 words too.

He argued that traveling and writing was my thing and I should think about doing it professionally. The thing is, I have been thinking about it lately. Since that I am now about to graduate with a Bachelor degree in Tourism management, my hands are already full, so this plan is on the waiting list. I have plans to take a writing course, where I learn how to write about traveling articles for publishing whether on internet or in newspaper or magazines. But that would have to wait till I have graduated.

Anyways, shall we start?

The new generations travel more than what their parents generation did, because it has become much easier to travel nowadays, in addition it does not cost as much as it did before. Traveling the world gives you challenges, a chance to get to know people with different cultures and you get to know yourself better and develop yourself too. Now, I have not yet been around the world, but I have been pretty much around and still have no plans to stop doing it. I have met many interesting people on the way, but the best thing I find about going to different places is the food, the attractions, the nature, the activities that the place has to offer and I also try to learn some words if I get a chance to. I love to get away from the daily life, for me that is the best way to relax and get to know myself better. I have done travels alone too, but then I go to somewhere where I know people, otherwise I do  like to have a company when I am on a travel. Because I can share the experiences with someone later and we can always look back at what we have been through together. However, you got to have the right person as your travel companion. I find it difficult to travel with girls, especially when you do not know them well. I have done it twice and I hope I have learned now, that I should not travel with girls that I do not know well enough. Luckily I have two favorite girls who I enjoy traveling with the most. If I had lots of money, I would buy myself a globe, which I can spin and point at. Wherever my finger lands, that is where I will be landing too. Traveling the world, that is and always will be the goal of my life. I swear I will never stop traveling. While people sign themselves to live on the March, I will wee and get to know this beautiful planet as long as I live.

That is my future. Stuck at my desk.
That is 351 words, according to words. And I hope my friend is happy.

Have to thank him for the topic! Without him I would not have posted an entry today, nor tomorrow.
